My Billionaire Husband

Brian scoffed at Diana's reply, "I want to ask you the same question. You want to break up with me, to leave me, without a word? Impossible!"

Diana almost laughed out loud. "Brian! You pursue me when all the while, you have a fiancée! Are you shameless?"

"You are my girl. Why can't I haunt you?" he sneered.

"You are shameless!"

"Whatever, I don't care," Brian said, smiling. He always seemed to find these 'arguments' quite enjoyable.

Diana was still furious. But she wouldn't give up that easily.

Diana unfastened her seat belt and leaned toward Brian.

"What are you doing? I am driving. You can't play tricks, no me now."

Diana laughed and grabbed a bottle of water. She looked at it mischievously, then slowly opened it.

"Diana, I'm warning you! If you do that, I will kill you!"

"I am not doing anything," she replied innocently.

At that, she raised her hand and poured the water over Brian, bit by bit. She didn't pour all of it at once, but let it slowly flow out.

Brian was shaking with anger, but he could do nothing. After all, he was driving. "Diana Anderson! I will kill you!"

Diana smiled and replied, "Mr. William unless you want me to reveal your secret, I suggest you don't do anything!"

Brian's face was as black as a pot. He would have loved to throw Diana out of his car.

At the same time, Carol wasn't in a good mood either. She never expected that Brian would get out of her car on the way. There was nothing she could do to stop him. And he'd conveniently asked Ken to go with them, so he was then able to drive her home.

Brian always asked her to behave calmly, so she did. But thinking that Brian left her for that girl, Carol was furious. If she saw them together, she would seriously lose it.

Driving the car, Ken noticed Carol's frightful expression. He knew what she was thinking about. He smiled and said, "Miss Jefferson, boss, must be busy doing something. You don't have to be unhappy."

Carol mocked Ken for his blind loyalty. Then she asked, "Ken, has your boss ever mentioned me to you?"

God! Ken was regretting having spoken up.

He cleared his throat and said, "Well, Boss doesn't really chat with me. He's always busy doing his business. He doesn't tell me much."

"Really?" Carol said suspiciously.

Ken squeezed out a smile. "Yes. He is really busy."

Carol could tell from Ken's hesitation that he wasn't telling her the whole truth.

When it came to Diana, he was always so considerate; he really cared for her. Though he was mean in his words, people could tell a lot from his behavior.

Thinking about how she threw the cheque at Diana, Carol was nervous. Diana told Brian about that. Would Brian hate her?

Before she had time to worry any more, Ken stopped the car and said politely, "Miss Jefferson, here we are."

Hearing Ken's voice, Carol relaxed and got quickly out of the car.

***

Ken was wary of how Carol had been behaving, the things she was asking. But he couldn't tell what was wrong. He thought about that for a while, then decided to call Brian.

"Boss, I have taken Miss Jefferson home."

Diana heard this and rolled her eyes. Brian, who had asked Diana to hold his phone as he was so wet, replied angrily, "Okay, come back quickly!"

"Why are you angry with Ken? He didn't do anything wrong." Diana looked at Brian and said.

Ken heard Diana's voice and knew this couple was quarreling with each other again. He thought it was funny and worried about Diana.

And his worry was right. Brian was irritated. "He is my servant. I can say anything I like. It's none of your business."

"What's wrong with a servant? He is also a man like you."

Ken was eager to hang up the phone; he didn't want to get in the middle of their discussion.

But out of sheer politeness, he stayed listening to it in silence. After ten minutes, they finally stopped, not after finding a solution to their disagreement, but because they'd arrived at Brian's house.

Seeing Brian's luxurious villa up ahead, Diana recalled her plan. When Brian stopped the car, she would open the door and run away. Unfortunately for her, he had already thought about that. So, no matter how hard Diana tried, she couldn't open the passenger door.

"Hey! What kind of man are you? You think it's funny to kidnap me?"

Brian walked out of the car slowly and took off his wet shirt. He threw it at Diana, and the damp shirt stuck to Diana's face.

"Of course, I am a man. As for you, you were hiding from me because you did something wrong. Right? Otherwise, you wouldn't leave me, your rich boss."

Diana couldn't believe what she was hearing and shouted, "You did something wrong!"

Brian didn't want to quarrel with Diana. He opened the car door and grabbed Diana by her collar, as if seizing a baby chick, and pulled her into the villa. Diana fought back with her hands and feet. She screamed and kicked at Brian's body.

Brian thought his ears were going to explode. He never knew Diana could be so noisy! He couldn't bear it anymore and put his handkerchief into Diana's mouth again.

At last, the world was quiet again.

However, Brian wasn't finished there. He pushed Diana toward the entrance of the bas.e.m.e.nt, before gently pushing her inside.

"You stay here and think about what you have done!"

Brian took the chance to avoid listening to Diana, scold him, and closed the door.

Diana kicked at the door and called out Brian's name, but there was no reply.

Diana was silly. She knew that if she kept shouting, he would just keep her in the bas.e.m.e.nt even longer.

So, she gave up and turned to look for another exit out of the bas.e.m.e.nt. Alas, all she could see was a sturdy looking, wrought iron window. There were certainly no other escape routes out of there.
